apparently google has been putting their software in everything including the kitchen sink since 1798??

the source is a little known but nifty website that desperately needs funding so if you go there you should give them like a dollar or whatever your local equivalent is, like one peso or a bitcoin or what have you

Browser? No.
What you tried to say was a spying malware disguised as eeb browser that spread the way every other viruses do.
Chromium is the open source base without the google spyware on top, kinda like AOSP vs. “Stock Android”. Still sucks that Google has so much control over it, but it’s a solid web browser.
Ohh true. I made a hasty comment. Yet because of Google, I never got to like any single chromium based browser.
It was like hundreds of computers I cleaned from Chrome which installed itself through bootstrapped or sideloaded in other applications’ installers and setting itself automagically as default.
Well. It wasn’t automatical, but used human lazyness or non-awareness that made them rigorously spam the ok button.
Was it 2008, or 2009 or something like that.
Even now when people ask some Chrome related problem, I reject them and give the only solution, uninstall.
